This is definately a nice "take-along" salad, and I don't mind having leftovers. Also works as a simple lunch.

This is Fantastic! I didn't use ham (didn't have any) and used fresh oregano & basil. Great to throw together for a quick lunch.

I thoroughly enjoyed this salad. The dressing is fantastic - a perfect blend of flavours. I used crisply fried bacon instead of ham, and no green onions. I added a little celery and a little extra sugar, as Carole suggested. I left out the hot pepper sauce, and used vegetable oil instead of olive oil. Thank-you for sharing this unique and truly delicious recipe!
